My friend and Estes Park neighbor, Shiloh and Me on the Wild Basin Trail in Rocky Mountain National Park yesterday. The whole area was snowpacked and beautiful. We did have to pay attention and stay in the middle of the trail….or…...as you can see, if we even stepped off a little to the side, we would sink up to our knees! It was a fun day…. :-)
another wonderful sight as I drove through town this morning…..... / snow from yesterday and last night makes such a lovely scene / 8/16/08
How I am feeling / /
This is Sprague Lake, within the Rocky Mountain National Park. This week the lake is still about 90% frozen. Looking across the lake you can see several mountain peaks thickly covered in snow. These peaks are actual glaciers and their crevases hold up to 30 feet of solid ice year round. Even when it is 85 degrees out there, these glaciers aren’t going anywhere.
Alberta Falls is a gorgeous piece of scenery located in Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado, off the Bear Lake Road, at Glacier Gorge (near Estes Park, CO)
from today…..8/16/08….........it snowed yesterday and all last night in the Colorado portion of the Rocky Mountains. Such an awesome sight to wake up to!
Every so often I like to stand back and realize my exact place in the grand scheme of things…..
